So make Q_XQUOTASYNC call into the writeback code directly and make the quota_sync method optional as XFS doesn't need in the sense expected by the rest of the quota code. GFS2 was using limited XFS-style quota and has a quota_sync method fitting neither the style used by vfs_quota_sync nor xfs_fs_quota_sync. I left it in for now as per discussion with Steve it expects to be called from the sync path this way. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

* | | | make sure data is on disk before calling ->write_inodeChristoph Hellwig2010-03-05
|/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similar to the fsync issue fixed a while ago in commit 2daea67e966dc0c42067ebea015ddac6834cef88 we need to write for data to actually hit the disk before writing out the metadata to guarantee data integrity for filesystems that modify the inode in the data I/O completion path. Currently XFS and NFS handle this manually, and AFS has a write_inode method that does nothing but waiting for data, while others are possibly missing out on this. Fortunately this change has a lot less impact than the fsync change as none of the write_inode methods starts data writeout of any form by itself.

| * | xfs: log changed inodes instead of writing them synchronouslyChristoph Hellwig2010-02-08

Currently these sycnhronous writes only come sync(1), unmount, a sycnhronous NFS export and cachefiles so should be relatively rare and out of common performance paths. Realistically, a synchronous inode write is not necessary here; we can avoid writing the inode by logging any non-transactional changes that are pending. This needs to be done with synchronous transactions, but it avoids seeking between the log and inode clusters as we do now. We don't force the log if the inode is pinned, though, so this differs from the fsync case. For normal sys_sync and unmount behaviour this is fine because we do a synchronous log force in xfs_sync_data which is called from the ->sync_fs code. It does however break the NFS synchronous export guarantees for now, but work is under way to fix this at a higher level or for the higher level to provide an additional flag in the writeback control to tell us that a log force is needed. Portions of this patch are based on work from Dave Chinner.

| * | xfs: Sort delayed write buffers before dispatchDave Chinner2010-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when the xfsbufd writes delayed write buffers, it pushes them to disk in the order they come off the delayed write list. If there are lots of buffers ѕpread widely over the disk, this results in overwhelming the elevator sort queues in the block layer and we end up losing the posibility of merging adjacent buffers to minimise the number of IOs. Use the new generic list_sort function to sort the delwri dispatch queue before issue to ensure that the buffers are pushed in the most friendly order possible to the lower layers.

| * | xfs: Don't issue buffer IO direct from AIL push V2Dave Chinner2010-02-01

When the AIL needs to push the buffer out, it issues an async write of the buffer. This means that IO patterns are dependent on the order of buffers in the AIL. Instead of flushing the buffer, promote the buffer in the delayed write list so that the next time the xfsbufd is run the buffer will be flushed by the xfsbufd. Return the state to the xfsaild that the buffer was promoted so that the xfsaild knows that it needs to cause the xfsbufd to run to flush the buffers that were promoted. Using the xfsbufd for issuing the IO allows us to dispatch all buffer IO from the one queue. This means that we can make much more enlightened decisions on what order to flush buffers to disk as we don't have multiple places issuing IO. Optimisations to xfsbufd will be in a future patch.

| * | xfs: Use delayed write for inodes rather than async V2Dave Chinner2010-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently do background inode flush asynchronously, resulting in inodes being written in whatever order the background writeback issues them. Not only that, there are also blocking and non-blocking asynchronous inode flushes, depending on where the flush comes from. This patch completely removes asynchronous inode writeback. It removes all the strange writeback modes and replaces them with either a synchronous flush or a non-blocking delayed write flush. That is, inode flushes will only issue IO directly if they are synchronous, and background flushing may do nothing if the operation would block (e.g. on a pinned inode or buffer lock). Delayed write flushes will now result in the inode buffer sitting in the delwri queue of the buffer cache to be flushed by either an AIL push or by the xfsbufd timing out the buffer. This will allow accumulation of dirty inode buffers in memory and allow optimisation of inode cluster writeback at the xfsbufd level where we have much greater queue depths than the block layer elevators. We will also get adjacent inode cluster buffer IO merging for free when a later patch in the series allows sorting of the delayed write buffers before dispatch. This effectively means that any inode that is written back by background writeback will be seen as flush locked during AIL pushing, and will result in the buffers being pushed from there. This writeback path is currently non-optimal, but the next patch in the series will fix that problem. A side effect of this delayed write mechanism is that background inode reclaim will no longer directly flush inodes, nor can it wait on the flush lock. The result is that inode reclaim must leave the inode in the reclaimable state until it is clean. Hence attempts to reclaim a dirty inode in the background will simply skip the inode until it is clean and this allows other mechanisms (i.e. xfsbufd) to do more optimal writeback of the dirty buffers. As a result, the inode reclaim code has been rewritten so that it no longer relies on the ambiguous return values of xfs_iflush() to determine whether it is safe to reclaim an inode. Portions of this patch are derived from patches by Christoph Hellwig.

We've had a history of problems in this area, and many of them stem from the overloading of the return values from xfs_iflush() and interaction with inode flush locking to determine if the inode is safe to reclaim. With the desire to move to delayed write flushing of inodes and non-blocking inode tree reclaim walks, the overloading of the return value of xfs_iflush makes it very difficult to determine the correct thing to do next. This patch explicitly re-adds the checks to the inode reclaim code, removing the reliance on the return value of xfs_iflush() to determine what to do next. It also means that we can clearly document all the inode states that reclaim must handle and hence we can easily see that we handled all the necessary cases. This also removes the need for the xfs_inode_clean() check in xfs_iflush() as all callers now check this first (safely).

Also, running xfs_copy on the remount,ro filesystem will result in an inconsistent image being generated.

We check the inode is clean before doing direct reclaim, but this is not good enough because the inode flush code marks the inode clean once it has copied the in-core dirty state to the backing buffer. It is the flush lock that determines whether the inode is still under IO, even though it is marked clean, and the inode is still required at IO completion so we can't reclaim it even though it is clean in core. Hence the requirement that we need to take the flush lock even on clean inodes because this guarantees that the inode writeback IO has completed and it is safe to reclaim the inode. With delayed write inode flushing, we coul dend up waiting a long time on the flush lock even for a clean inode. The background reclaim already handles this efficiently, so avoid all the problems by killing the direct reclaim path altogether.

It then uses the commit LSN of the transaction to force the log out to. Unfortunately, the other busy ranges might have more recent commit LSNs than the first busy extent that is found, and this results in xfs_alloc_search_busy() returning before all the extent free transactions are on disk for the range being allocated. This can lead to potential metadata corruption or stale data exposure after a crash because log replay won't replay all the extent free transactions that cover the allocation range.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have some rather odd code in xfs_setattr for updating the a/c/mtime timestamps: - first we do a non-transaction update if all three are updated together - second we implicitly update the ctime for various changes instead of relying on the ATTR_CTIME flag - third we set the timestamps to the current time instead of the arguments in the iattr structure in many cases. This patch makes sure we update it in a consistent way: - always transactional - ctime is only updated if ATTR_CTIME is set or we do a size update, which is a special case - always to the times passed in from the caller instead of the current time The only non-size caller of xfs_setattr that doesn't come from the VFS is updated to set ATTR_CTIME and pass in a valid ctime value.

| * XFS: Free buffer pages array unconditionallyDave Chinner2009-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code in xfs_free_buf() only attempts to free the b_pages array if the buffer is a page cache backed or page allocated buffer. The extra log buffer that is used when the log wraps uses pages that are allocated to a different log buffer, but it still has a b_pages array allocated when those pages are associated to with the extra buffer in xfs_buf_associate_memory. Hence we need to always attempt to free the b_pages array when tearing down a buffer, not just on buffers that are explicitly marked as page bearing buffers. This fixes a leak detected by the kernel memory leak code. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change all async metadata buffers to use [READ|WRITE]_META I/O types so that the I/O doesn't get issued immediately. This allows merging of adjacent metadata requests but still prioritises them over bulk data. This shows a 10-15% improvement in sequential create speed of small files. Don't include the log buffers in this classification - leave them as sync types so they are issued immediately.

| * direct-io: cleanup blockdev_direct_IO lockingChristoph Hellwig2009-12-16

The most complicated one is DIO_OWN_LOCKING for reads, which happens to not actually be used. This patch gets rid of the DIO_OWN_LOCKING - as mentioned above the read case is unused anyway, and the write side is almost identical to DIO_NO_LOCKING. The difference is that DIO_NO_LOCKING always sets the create argument for the get_blocks callback to zero, but we can easily move that to the actual get_blocks callbacks. There are four users of the DIO_NO_LOCKING mode: gfs already ignores the create argument and thus is fine with the new version, ocfs2 only errors out if create were ever set, and we can remove this dead code now, the block device code only ever uses create for an error message if we are fully beyond the device which can never happen, and last but not least XFS will need the new behavour for writes. Now we can replace the lock_type variable with a flags one, where no flag means the DIO_NO_LOCKING behaviour and DIO_LOCKING is kept as the first flag. Separate out the check for not allowing to fill holes into a separate flag, although for now both flags always get set at the same time. Also revamp the documentation of the locking scheme to actually make sense.

* | sanitize xattr handler prototypesChristoph Hellwig2009-12-16
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch. Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later, e.g. cifs.

* xfs: event tracing supportChristoph Hellwig2009-12-15

To use it make sure CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is enabled and then enable all xfs trace channels by: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/enable or alternatively enable single events by just doing the same in one event subdirectory, e.g. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xfs/xfs_ihold/enable or set more complex filters, etc. In Documentation/trace/events.txt all this is desctribed in more detail. To reads the events do a cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Compared to the last posting this patch converts the tracing mostly to the one tracepoint per callsite model that other users of the new tracing facility also employ. This allows a very fine-grained control of the tracing, a cleaner output of the traces and also enables the perf tool to use each tracepoint as a virtual performance counter, allowing us to e.g. count how often certain workloads git various spots in XFS. Take a look at http://lwn.net/Articles/346470/ for some examples. Also the btree tracing isn't included at all yet, as it will require additional core tracing features not in mainline yet, I plan to deliver it later.

This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to vfs_fsync_range and when not. This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers. This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe. We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path to make sure we always get these sane options. Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.
